THE  CENTURY  EOUR-NAIL  BRACKET 

Illustrated  above,  is  the  latest  type  of  nail  bracket  on  the  market.  It  is  adjustable  from  two  inches  to  twenty- 
four  inches.  It  can  be  used  on  roofs  as  a  chimney  bracket  by  adjusting  the  ring  on  the  long  pipe  .support. 
It  can  be  used  on  any  pitch  roof.  H'he  bracket  is  naded  on  the  I'afters,  then  adjusted  to  meet  requirements. 
It  is  removed  the  same  way.  (Note  bracket  on  roof.)  It  folds  together  like  'an  umbrella.  Forty-eight 
brackets  can  easily  be  carried  in  the  back  of  a  Ford  coupe. 

DIRECTIONS  FOR  USING  CENTURY  FOUR-NAIL  BRACKETS. 

Drive  two  nails  on  studs  opposite  each  other.  Hang  the  bracket  on.  Drive  two  more  nails  through  lower 
slot  holes.  In  removing  simply  lift  the  bracket  off.  Do  not  pull  the  nails  out.  Drive  them  in.  We  have 
listed  the  names  of  four  painters  in  Dumont,  N.  J.,  who  have  found  these  brackets  excellent:  Mr.  John 
Mossa,  Mr.  Fleger,  Mr.  Frank  Odenell  and  Mr.  Rudolf  Mossa. 

For  painting,  use  ten-penny  nails.  A  ten-penny  nail,  when  hit  on  the  stud,  will  not  crack  the  clapboard. 


CHIMNEY  BRACKETS 

Adjustable  for  every  pitch  roof.  Folds 
together  I’ke  an  umbrella.  Same 
can  be  used  on  side  for  side 
wall  chimney.

is  provided  with  an  extension  of  the  same  length  as  thi 
trestle  and  is  included  in  the  list  price.  ®

casting,  whiioh  forms  the 
^ide  for  travelling  section.  Easy  and  quick  to  operate 
On  10-ft.  trestles  and  over  it  is  better  to  use  the  cross 
brace  when  the  extension  is  extended  full  length  and  the 
plank  near  the  top.  These  cross  braces  form  an  X  between 
the  two  extensions,  connecting  on  anv  of  the  rungs  de¬

SAFETY  FIRST 


In  the  upper  illustration 
note  the  center  ladder  with 
the  cloth  tied  over  the  lad¬ 
der  tips.  You  can  see  this 
method  in  use  everywhere 
by  painters  and  mechanics 
of  all  trades. 

Note  the  man  climbing 
the  ladder  equipped  with  SAFETY 
BRACKETS  all  ready  to  paint 
the  sash  and  frame,  with  his  pots 
of  color,  one  on  each  side  of  the 
ladder  in  a  position  clear  of  the 
ladder  and  working  surface.  The 
sash  can  be  lowered  or  raised  at 
will  without  moving  the  ladder. 

The  painter  on  the  ladder  far¬ 
thest  from  view  is  painting  under¬ 
neath  his  ladder  in  an  easy  man¬ 
ner.  The  SAFETY  BRACKET 
holds  the  ladder  away  from  the 
building  14  inches.  The  surface 
underneath  can  easily  be  painted 
without  moving  the  ladder,  or  try¬ 
ing  to  paint  in  close  quarters  un¬ 
derneath,  as  shown  in  cut  of  cen¬ 
ter  ladder.  The  Safety  Clip  on  the 
arm  of  the  bracket  keeps  pots 
from  sliding  against  the  finished 
surface. 

The  SAFETY  BRACKET  holds 
the  ladder  out  in  an  easy  position 
for  painting  the  cornice,  as  shown 
in  larger  illustration. 


Newark  Ladder  and 
Bracket  Company 
of  Newark,  N.  J. 
has  solved  the  prob¬ 
lem  for  ladder  users. 


Mr.  St.  George,  a  paint¬ 
ing  contractor  of  Bloom¬ 
field,  N.  J.,  has  tested  the 
labor  saving  it  affords  and 
finds  that  one  man  will  ac¬ 
complish  more  work  in  five 
hours  on  a  ladder  equipped 
with  SAFETY  BRACK¬ 
ETS  than  the  same  man 
can  accomplish  without  the 
SAFETY  BRACKETS  in 
eight  hours,  showing  that 
with  labor  at  $1.00  per 
hour  the  saving  in  one  day 
is  more  than  half  the  price 
of  a  set  of  the  SAFETY 
BRACKETS.  One  man  can 
readily  see  what  a  saving 
this  means  on  a  week’s 
work  of  one  man. 

The  SAFETY  BRACK¬ 
ETS  being  made  of  ductile 
steel  should  last  a  lifetime.

below  a  2  ft.  8  in.  cornice, 
and  the  easy  manner  in  which  he 
can  reach  his  work  of  hanging  gut¬ 
ters.  The  SAFETY  BRACKET 
also  holds  the  ladder  from  slipping 
when  the  man  using  it  has  to  reach 
beyond  for  the  next  clip.  Note  the 
handy  place  for  his  firepot,  hang¬ 
ing  as  it  does  on  the  arm  and  held 
in  position  by  the  Safety  Clip. 

The  other  ladder  in  the  cut 
shows  how  the  SAFETY  BRACK¬ 
ET  rests  on  the  shingle  and  holds 
the  ladder  away  from  the  gutter, 
enabling  the  tinsmith  to  work 
without  fear  of  falling  or  having 
the  wind  blow  his  ladder  over,  las 
has  often  been  the  case  when  it 
rested  against  the  metal  gutter. 
He  has  free  and  easy  access  to 
work  on  the  inside  of  the  gutter 
and  can  take  the  ^tter  down  or 
put  it  in  place  without  reaching 
and  without  moving  his  ladder. 

A  tinsmith  when  hanging  gut¬ 
ters  will  save  several  hours’  work 
each  day  by  using  the  SAFETY 
BRACKET.  This  is  a  proven  fact, 
verified  by  tinsmiths  from  various 
sections  of  the  United  States. 


Newark  Safety  Brackets  will  pay  for  themselves  with  increased  production  in  less  than  two  days 

Practical  tests  have  proven  it.

Newark  Ladder  Jack  is  absolutely  the  strongest  and  best  made.  All  other  ladder 
jacks  are  only  as  strong  as  the  weakest  laing  of  the  ladder.  Attaching  these  Jacks  on 
the  standard  of  the  ladder  instead  of  the  rungs  gives  them  much  greater  strength. 
They  can  be  raised  or  lowered  to  any  desired  height  or  angle,  or  reversed  to  either 
the  outside  or  under  side  of  the  ladder  in  a  minute’s  time  without  removing  the  plank 
or  scaffolding  from  the  jack.  They  are  self-locking  and  adjust  themselves  to  any  stan¬ 
dard  make  of  ladder.  Being  made  of  “Best  Grade”  angle  steel,  they  weigh  but

AJAX  FOLDING  METAL  SHEATHING  and  ROOFING  BRACKETS 


are  used  to  apply  both  Sheathing  Boards  and  Roofing  Materials 


The  most  sensationally  popular  Bracket 
equipment  ever  offered  for  roof  work  in  the 
United  States.  Patented  February  2,  1925, 
nearly  every  carpenter  and  roofer  approached 
wants  to  try  the  “AJAX”  because  it  appears 
to  be  his  idea  of  a  practical  roof  staging. 

Carpenters  use  Ajax  Brackets,  first  to 
apply  sheathing  boards  to  the  rafters,  then  to 
apply  roofing  materials  to  sheathing  boards. 

Roofers  use  Ajax  Brackets  to  apply  all  sizes 
slate,  tile,  asbestos,  asphalt,  metal  and  wood 
shingles,  etc. 

Ajax  Brackets  are  made  of  16  and  18  gauge 
galvanized  metal  and  all  the  die-cut  stamped 
parts  are  scientifically  riveted  together. 

Boards  or  planks  up  to  12  inches  wide  can 
be  used  thereon.  Guaranteed  to  carry  any 
weight  the  workmen  may  pile  on. 

Instantly  adjustable  to  any  pitch  roof. 
Ajax  Brackets  lock,  with  a  sliding  lock,  into 
notched  strips  in  open  position  ready  for  use. 

To  apply  sheathing  boards,  drive  support¬ 
ing  nails  into  four  slotted  holes  in  bcdy  of 
bracket. 


To  apply  roofing  materials,  drive  one  or 
more  supporting  nails  into  notches  of  extend¬ 
ing  nail  strip.  Place  brackets  six  to  eight  feet 
apart  on  roofing  already  laid  fiom  cornice 
upward  so  their  upper  end  wall  be  one  inch  or 
more  below  the  butt  of  next  course  of  roofing 
to  be  laid  over  entending  nail  strip;  this  wall 
allow  for  unhooking.  To  apply  Spanish  tile, 
didve  supporting  nails  into  four  slotted  holes 
in  body  of  biacket. 

x'o  remove,  lock  upright  section  into  pair 
of  notches  immediately  below  heel  of  nail  strip 
then  push  upw^ards  to  unhook  and  pull  from 
beneath  roofing  course. 

Plank  stops  retam  a  2x4,  2x6  or  2x8  frmly 
against  the  roof.  Practical  men  like  them. 
Easily  attached  and  detached. 

Ajax  Brackets  fold  compactly  for  conven¬ 
ient  handling  and  storing  in  specially  made 
crates.  Each  crate  contains  the  minimum 
equipment  of  one  dozen  brackets. 

To  sheath  and  roof  with  makeshifts  or 
scant  2x4s  is  wasteful  in  time  and  materials 
and  is  extremely  dangerous. 

Ajax  Brackets,  attached  as  the  sheathing 
or  roofing  work  advances,  afford  speed  and 
safety.

r’HE  ORANGE  LADDER  AND  BRACKET 
MANUFACTURING  COMPANY,  whose 
products  are  listed  in  this  catalogue,  is  a 
pioneer  in  the  ladder  and  bracket  business.  Es¬ 
tablished  oyer  25  years  ago,  we  are  now  one 
of  the  leading  ladder  and  bracket  houses  in  the 
country.  We  specialize  in  solidly  constructed 
ladders  for  the  contractor  and  factory. 


AVOID  ACCIDENTS. 


The  question  of  quality  and  safety  of  ladders  is  more 
vital  to  the  user  than  that  of  an,  yother  implement  sold. 

Several  states  have  adopted  safety  codes  covering 
ladder  specifications,  which  have  greatly  improved  the 
safety  of  the  public. 

Newark  Ladders  are  made  under  specifications  which 
have  been  approved  by  the  American  Society  of  Safety 
Engineers  and  the  U.  ,S.  Department  of  Labor. 

Do  not  try  to  economize  on  buying  cheap  ladders,  as 
they  .are  very  dangerous.  Buy  the  very  best  that  can  be 
had,  as  your  life  is  worth  more  than  the  price  of  several 
carloads. 

Our  ladders  are  equipped  with  the  very  latest  improve¬ 
ments  and  manufactured  from  strictly  first-class  materials. 
We  use  modem  machinery  and  employ  skilled  workmen. 

We  do  not  manufacture  a  competition  line  of  ladders. 
Our  purpose  is  to  create  a  mail-order  business.  We  realize 
that  we  have  competitors  in  every  part  of  the  country. 
We  have  thus  put  on  the  market  ladders  that  are  the  finest 
in  construction.  These  ar  not  household  ladders,  but  lad¬ 
ders  for  the  contractor.  The  only  way  we  can  hold  your 
business  is  to  give  you  quality  first.  We  claim  that  we 
manufacture  the  strongest  ladders  in  New  Jersey.  As  to 
price,  we  have  lowered  same  to  rock-bottom.  We  feel  sure 
that  by  selling  you  one  ladder'.or  tool  you  will  be  more  than 
a  customer — you  will  be  a  friend.  We  cannot  get  more 
business  in  your  town  without  your  support.  So,  after  you 
have  tried  one  of  our  laddei-s  or  tools,  tell  your  friends. 

We  thank  you.
